U.S. President Donald Trump traveled to Texas last week, a state that is one of the key battlegrounds where the two parties are vying for control of the Senate.

Democratic candidate James Talarico said that it will be the people of Texas, not corporate interests, who will drive his campaign to victory.

U.S. Vice President J.D. Vance traveled to Michigan this week to campaign for Republican Senate candidate Mike Rogers. Rogers attacked his opponent, Democratic candidate Abdul El-Sayed, saying he is too dangerous for Michigan. El-Sayed denied the allegations.

In Maine, five-term Republican U.S. Senator Susan Collins clashed sharply with Democratic challenger Troy Jackson in a fiery debate.

Early voting has already begun in multiple U.S. states, and Election Day is November 3. All 435 seats in the U.S. House of Representatives will be up for election, and 35 of the 100 seats in the U.S. Senate are also facing re-election. Currently, the Republican Party controls both chambers of Congress.
